    Oncology/Neurology

    Thanks! Your info helps. I do know they'll be getting chemo and I'll need to be chemo certified after a year. Other than that, I don't know much yet about the unit. I have to take some hospital provided classes and get 6 weeks on the floor orientatio...

    Oncology/Neurology

    Anyone work in this specialty? I will be working on a neuro/oncology floor and have no idea what to expect. Is this a normal combination of specialties? It seems a little strange to me...

    if you graduated in the last 5 years

    I was an LPN for 8 years before completing an LPN-BSN program. I just kept the same job as an RN. That's not one of your options! :)

    Thinking about quitting

    I am right there with ya, but I hate to tell you.....you won't get very far as a new grad BSN, either. I have had my BSN since 2013 and still can't get into a hospital....always passed over for someone with more experience, and it sucks. My LPN exper...

    Thinking about quitting

    Ah....good luck educating HR. They already have a job, so they don't care! I've run into this many, many times! I have gone to bypassing HR and going directly to the hiring manager. Poor HR is so overloaded (sarcasm). I almost missed out on a job fai...

    Frustrated New Grad - Update

    Why were you told not to approach NM? Also keep an eye out for job fairs.

    Frustrated New Grad FOUND A JOB!!!!!

    These days THIS is what you need to do! I signed up for a job fair, and HR emailed me back saying I didn't have the one year they required in order to be "invited" to the job fair. I called them back and said oh yes I do....they reviewed my resume an...

    Anti-vax nurses? Are you serious?

    The pre req's are not all the same. I never took inorganic chem. I did take chem 1 and 2, micro, A&P, etc.

    Nurse Neglect/Abuse?

    Chances are, she was a MA, not a nurse, unless you saw her title. My MD's office only has MA's and they are called "nurses" by the staff, my PCP included. I don't consider this abuse or neglect.....sounds like she was trying to assess how urgent the...

    RN-BSN SCAM

    Should they give you a degree for free? I went to UoP and did their LPN-BSN program, and I have a counselor helping me find jobs before I landed this one I am starting. Of COURSE they want your money. Money makes the world go round. So, the question...

    Pvt lives on!!!! Passed the nclex the third time!!!!

    Wooohooo!! Also, keep in mind, even though you know CONTENT you have to be able to figure out what the question is asking. It's not like the questions in school where the answers are all cut and dried. I made that mistake when I took mine the first t...

    A concerned LPN!

    Hang in there. It does get better. Try to give it at least a year. I spent 6 in LTC as an LPN and was charge on the medicare unit with 15-20 patients because the RN in house didn't want to do it. The first month will be totally overwhelming, but aft...
